SUPPORT SEASON III
Make a Gift. Make a Difference.
Thank you for being part of Pointeworks.
Season 3 is taking shape through new commissions, artist employment, and the work leading to our June performances at The Conrad. Every rehearsal and every performance is made possible through individual support.
Pointeworks thrives because of people who believe in ballet beyond the stage. Ticket sales cover only a portion of what it takes to bring this work to life—your support makes the season possible.
Support Pointeworks at a level that feels meaningful to you.
Join our Ballet Society at $100+, or deepen your involvement through our Patron Circles ($1,000+), which directly support the artists and creation of the season. Opportunities are also available to underwrite specific elements of Season 3.

Want to Give a Seat?
Last season, because of donors like you, Pointeworks placed over $11,000 worth of tickets into the hands of students, veterans, first responders, and first-time audience members. At our Irvine performance alone, 167 seats were gifted, including to military families. We saw young dancers experience their first live ballet. Veterans brought their children to the theatre—some for the first time. Moments of healing, inspiration, and belonging filled the audience.
Now, as we prepare for Season 3 — Nocturnes at The Conrad (June 2026), we're inviting you to help us make that impact even greater.
Your support is vital to ensuring the continued vitality and innovation of Pointeworks. We deeply appreciate your contribution towards our second season, and we thank you for being a valued supporter of the arts.
